Life in McAlester
Rooted in Community
“I grew up in McAlester and swore I’d never come back after college. Today, you couldn’t pay me to leave. We’ve built a deep community here — the kind my “big city” friends wish they could find — and the Chamber plays a big role in that by connecting people, supporting local businesses, and creating meaningful ways to get involved. We love to travel, but we always get homesick for this place. McAlester makes it easy to enjoy life — especially when we’re working together to make it even better.”
